Bug Description

It's easy to _suspend_ Ctrl+Z a task, and forget about it, In such scenarios closing the terminal should result in a warning, confirming if the user really wants to close and kill the background tasks.

Additionally, I add the following criteria when I mark importance:

Critical: This is probably a crasher. This problem makes the app completely unusable and is an emergency.

Low: This is an annoyance, but it does not prevent a user from using the app. Likely a "papercut" or small visual design issue.

Wishlist: This is not a problem with existing features, this is an enhancement or a new feature.

I think it's important to have rules when evaluating bug reports, only
that way we can accurately pay attention to the importance when fixing
bugs.

Also where we are in the milestone (nearing release) factors in too, right
now certain things are more likely to have a lower priority than if we were
working on Luna+1.

Still a valid issue. We should either issue the warning or just bring that stopped task back up when you reopen Terminal (personally I'm a fan of the latter)
